I can't decide on a tripod :o(

OK, I've mentioned the gorillapod before but it was dismissed because it wasn't hefty enough, but I was searching around amazon and came across the Gorillapod GP8 Focus, which claims to be able to support 11 pounds of gear, and you can mount a real head on it... and it's only $65 (plus a head). Looks a lot more sturdy than the tiny ones.
